It happened to me. It was visiting death. Imobile. My brain shut down, too many years, a lifetime,v of everything you also lived with - trying to be good for everyone only to be betrayed over and over again, in the smallest of ways and in the most profound of ways - every day, so many tiny moments just fly over our heads and go into that file labeled denial. <br /><br />Our sanity can just take so much and then it stops, goes on pause and under the surface of our mind everything shatters and then begin to repair themselves, so much healing takes place, patterns that have created our ability to live with all of the emotional and verbal abuse we have taken all of our lives break down - and we begin to really, really heal. And bit by bit, step by step our lives change for the better. New doors of perception make us see things so differently and so we behave differently. And things get better. God bless, Goddess bless. Women. We bless each other.<br /><br />We live through it and at some point we realize that we saved our own lives.nazelethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00711794777364747269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2494418227244664372.post-60305788275798380342012-01-25T15:41:59.867-06:002012-01-25T15:41:59.867-06:00I'm glad you made it through your darkest hour...I'm glad you made it through your darkest hour and are back on the road to a better part of your life. It's strange how I don't really know you, yet through reading your blog I feel like I've known you for years. Keep your chin up and smile. I've been through a VERY similar situation (at least based on what I know from what you write), and even having gone through that absolute hell, I'm glad I did because it led me to where I am - I've never been happier. Best wishes, and keep up the writing!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2494418227244664372.post-69134108970885869862012-01-25T11:40:32.228-06:002012-01-25T11:40:32.228-06:00Beautifully written....only I wish you hadn't ...Beautifully written....only I wish you hadn't had to experience it. There are some truly awful people out there....but then again, there's a bevy of terrific people! I know it's painful and you're mourning, but I suggest thinking of things this way: You gave true efforts in some relationships, only to discover that the person on the other end was a fraud. The crime is on them. Look forward to the TRUE relationships in your life & thrive!! =)Kathleen...https://www.blogger.com/profile/06586887165100841363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2494418227244664372.post-49504300280379628242012-01-25T10:56:28.107-06:002012-01-25T10:56:28.107-06:00Keep on fighting Angry Squaw.

If you think of all the strong women you know, they thrive because they know who they are inside and what they want. They aren't afraid to demand respect.Birdiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03479872783727855901noreply@blogger.com
